YQD® Success Stories: How Luzy Turned Her Passion Into Purpose | Luzy King | Say Hola Wealth

Season 6, Ep. 249

This week, episode 249 features a YQD® success story! We sat down with past student Luzy King of Say Hola Wealth and discuss how she turned her passion into purpose.

Luzy King is an award-winning entrepreneur, Certified Trauma of Money Wealth Coach, contributing author, Community Leader, and Founder of Say Hola Wealth.

She's on a mission to decolonize wealth for First Gen Latinas and BIPOC and help them reach financial freedom through stock market investing and entrepreneurship.

As a First Gen investor from humble beginnings, Luzy understands the challenges of building wealth not only because financial literacy is not taught in school but also because of the cultural beliefs around money in our culture and society.
